Decision details

HTW-26-19: The County of Wiltshire (Tidworth) (Prohibition and Restriction of Waiting, Taxi Rank Clearways and On-Street Parking) Consolidation Order 2018 (Amendment No.2) Order 2019

Decision Maker: Cabinet Member for Transport, Street Scene and Flooding

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: Yes

Purpose:

To consider three objections and one comment in connection with the proposed Waiting Restriction (No-waiting at any time) on Oatway Road, Tidworth (see Appendix 2).

 

Decision:

I approve that the proposals, as advertised, be implemented.

This decision was published on  24 October 2019 and will come into force on 1 November 2019.           

 

Reasons for the decision:

The introduction of a “No-waiting at any time” restriction on the lengths outlined in the Order will ensure that children accessing the school will be able to cross the road safely without the danger of restricted visibility due to parked cars.  The location of the yellow lines will ensure that junctions in the area are kept clear of on-street parking to facilitate the passage of vehicles, in particular buses, refuse vehicles and large emergency vehicles, in the interests of the safety of the users of the highway.

 

 

Alternative options considered:

To:

 

(i)            Implement the proposals as advertised.

 

(ii)           Not implement the proposals.

 

(iii)       Implement the proposals with amendments

Other reasons / organisations consulted

Consultations have been undertaken with the Fire Service, Police and Ambulance Service and also with the relevant bus companies, the Town Council and the Local Member.  Advertisements have been posted in the local press and notices were posted in prominent positions at the site (see Appendix 1).
